Both undergraduate and graduate course catalogs were pulled from the university website. Courses were counted and analyzed individually to determine the total number of offerings, as well as classifying courses as sustainability-focused or inclusive. If the course was fully based in sustainability or environmental education, the course was marked as sustainability-focused. If the course was primarily teaching a different subject but had strong ties to sustainability, it was marked as sustainability-inclusive
